I am afraid there is a fundamental difference of approach between the coalition and my right hon. colleague. [Hon. Members: "Colleague?"] My right hon. Friend. I beg his pardon.

It will engage communities and householders, who will become more responsible in the energy economy and take up opportunities that are currently not available to them in an old, 20th-century style of energy provision.
